Molecular cloning of a cysteine synthase cDNA from Arabidopsis thaliana.
Cys biosynthesis in higher plants occurs by a process similar to that known in microorganisms (Kredich, 1987). Cys synthase [O-acetylserine (thio1)-lyase, EC 4.2.99.81 catalyzes the formation of Cys from O-acetylserine and free or carrier-bound sulfide. Cys synthase has been purified from various plants and microorganisms and has been shown to have a molecular mass of 52 to 70 kD. The plant enz...
متن کاملUnprecedented reactions: from epichlorohydrin to epoxyglycidyl substituted divinyl ether and its conversion into epoxyglycidyl propargyl ether
The reaction of epichlorohydrin with concentrated sodium hydroxide in hexane under phase transfer conditions has surprisingly led to the formation of the symmetrical di(3-epoxyglycidyl-1-propenyl) ether 1 which contains both nucleophilic and electrophilic moieties. When it was reacted with n-butyllithium, intermediate 1 once again surprisingly generated epoxyglycidyl propargyl ether, which was ...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and expression of human leukotriene C4 synthase.
Leukotriene-C4 synthase (LTC4S; EC 2.5.1.37) catalyzes the committed step in the biosynthesis of the peptidoleukotrienes, which are important in the pathogenesis of asthma. Antibodies were generated to a synthetic peptide based on the partial amino acid sequence previously reported for human LTC4S [Nicholson, D.W., Ali, A., Vaillancourt, J.P., Calaycay, J.R., Mumford, R.A., Zamboni, R.J. & Ford...
متن کاملCharacterization of a divinyl ether biosynthetic pathway specifically associated with pathogenesis in tobacco.
In tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), an elicitor- and pathogen-induced 9-lipoxygenase (LOX) gene, NtLOX1, is essential for full resistance to pathogens, notably to an incompatible race of Phytophthora parasitica var. nicotianae (Ppn race 0). In this work, we aimed to identify those oxylipins induced during attempted infection by Ppn race 0 and down-regulated in NtLOX1 antisense plants. Here we show ...
متن کاملHuman fatty acid synthase: properties and molecular cloning.
Fatty acid synthase (FAS; EC 2.3.1.85) was purified to near homogeneity from a human hepatoma cell line, HepG2. The HepG2 FAS has a specific activity of 600 nmol of NADPH oxidized per min per mg, which is about half that of chicken liver FAS. All the partial activities of human FAS are comparable to those of other animal FASs, except for the beta-ketoacyl synthase, whose significantly lower act...
